This invention relates generally to dolls rich as used by children asplaythiugs, the

;..nvention having more particular reterence .;;.t' .a novel type ofremovable hand.

The invention has for an object the pro- :Nision of a removable hand andnursing hot it. itle combhied, comprising an effect which ,avill appearas though the doll. to which is'aine is applied. was drinking milk.

5; further objectof the invention is the provision of a removable handand nursing bottle combined of novel construction and arrangement; ofparts.

' For further comprehension of the invention. and of the objects andadvantages thereof, reference will be had to the follow inf, descriptionand accompanying drawing, and tothe appended claims in which the variousnovel features of the invention are more particularly set forth. f

Fig. 2 is an enlarged fragmentary vertical central sectional Viewthereof.

Fig. 3 is a fragmentary longitudinal cen tral sectional view of a dollsarm adapted to receive my improved device.

Fig. 4 is a vertical sectional view taken on the line 4.4 of Fig. 3.

As here embodied my improved dolls hand and nursing bottle comprisesbriefly a dolls hand 10, having its fingers 11.. molded orotherwisettn'med in a semi-closed or graspins: position. so as to holdthe nursingbottle 12 having a removable nipple. 13. as clearly shown inFig. l. of the accompanying drawing.

The dolls. hand 1] has a depending wrist element. 14. with an extendedportion 15, ot 'circular hollow erosssection provided with acircumferential notch 21 or groove. suitably located. the said extendedportion 15 having; a rounded closed end 16.- It is understood that theabove mentioned dolls hand and connected elements are molded or suitably't'ormed hollow. as is also the nursing bottle 12. as clearly shown inthe accompanying drawing.

The nursing bottle 12 is provided with in aperture 17, to receive thehollow cylindrical member 18. or tube. which is suitably attached to thenursin; bottle 19.. at one extremity, and which extends therefrom intothe dolls hand 10, the said tube 18 being po- Application filedlelnruarv LEON WALLACE, 01E BRCQKLYN, NEJV YORK.

sitioned at. or near the upper portion of the dolls hand 10.

The nursing bottle 12 is also provided with an aperture 19,interconnnunicative with the dolls hand 10, as at 20.

The above mentioned construction being such as will allow milk, or anyliquid, preterably a mixture of water and any white ingrediont, torepresent milk. when poured or placed in the said. nursing bottle, byremoving the nipple 13, to run through the said apertures 17 and 19 intothe dolls hand, when the arm. to which my improved device is attached isinclined, or bent upwards. to the dolls mouth, and which will permit thesaid milk to run from the said dolls hand, through the aperture 19 backinto the said nursing" bottle 12. when the said dolls hand is bent backinto its initial position.

it is understood. that the aperture 19 will be of con'iparatively smallarea, as compared to the area of the said aperture 17. When the deviceis tilted upwardly the liquid. flows through both apertures 17 and t9trom the bottle into the hand, appearing as though the doll quicklydrinks the liquid. But when the device is lowered into its normaldownward position, the return of the liquid from the arm to the bottleis very slow and gradual, due to the fact that aperture 17 is above theliquid level, and the liquid must return through aperture 19, which isof such a size compared to aperture 17 as to cause a very slow return ofthe liquid. It. is further understood that the said nursing bottle 12 ismade of any suitable transparent material. and that the said dolls hand10, is made of any suitable opaque material.

Referring in particular to l? 3 and, in which I have shown the dolls armadapted to receive my improved d rice. The dolls arm 22, is of hollowcircular cross section, having an open lower extremity and provided witha circumferential raised carve portion 24-, having apertures 25 and 26.adapted to receive the extremities and 28, respectively of a suitablyround spring member 29, the said extremities it? and 28. being formed orbent as at- 30 and 31. respectively, to retain the said spring 29, inthe desired. position.

The above construction being such as will allow the spring 29 to engagethe said notch 21, when my improved device is pushed. or

slid into the dolls arm 22, it being understood that the said roundedclosed end 16 will force the spring 29 into the raised curved portion24, until my improved device is in a fully engaged position, at whichtime, the said spring 29 will engage the notch 21.

It-Will be further understood that my improved devicem'ay be madeWithout the embodiment of the said notch 21, and the said raised curvedportion 24, and'the said related sprin 29.

Having t us-described my invention, what I claim as new and desire toprotect by Letters Patent of the United States is as follows 1. A deviceof the class described, comprising a nursing bottle, a dolls hand fixedto said bottle, a tube extending from the bottle into the dolls hand,said tube being positioned near the upper end of said hand, and saidbottle being formed with an aperture intercommunicatingg with the dollshand, said a erture being positioned below said tube an permitting theslow and gradual return of the liquid when the bottle is lowered to itsinitial position.

2. A device of the class' described, comprising a nursing bottle, adollshand fixed to said bottle, a Wrist elementdepending from said hand, acircular hollow member formed with a circumferential notch, dependingfrom said Wrist element, a dolls arm formed With a circumferential,raised .curved portion, said dolls arm being formed with apertures insaid raised curved portion, a round spring member housed in said raisedcurved portion, and cngageable with the circumferential notch of saidcircular hollow member, said spring member having its ends engaged inthe apertures of said dolls arm, a tube extending from the bottle intothe dolls hand, said tube being positioned near the upper end of saidhand, and said bottle being formed with an aperture interconnnuuicatingwith the dolls hand, said aperture being positioned below said tube andpermitting the slow and gradual return of the liquid when the bottle islowered to its initial position.

In testimony whereof I have affixed my signature.
